Further work on the mini is underway by John, Struan and Mark.

Fire systems, fuel pumps, factory speedo, ice tank, race seat, and parachute levers are all fitted and tested. Yet to appear are the new sexy graphics and fitted wheels to complete the livery.

An interesting comparison between the tyres the team will run on Cookie (2L Synergy v8 powered NX Coupe) and Issigonis (998cc Mini). Left is the 12inch tyre for the rear of the Mini, middle is the 21inch tyre for the front of the Mini and, right is the 26inch tyre from Cookie.
